Throwing on a bathing suit when it’s the weekend just hits different, and Sofía Vergara understands that sentiment better than almost anyone. The Modern Family alum recently shared a few pics on Instagram to officially kick off the weekend—and the summer.

“Finally the weekend!!🥳🥳 solecito🌞🌞 #hm #gettingreadyforsummer 🕶,” the 49-year-old actress wrote in the caption. And, understandably, fans promptly freaked out.

Vergara is pretty focused on her fitness game these days, and it shows. But her go-to moves are also approachable. Her trainer, Jennifer Yates, previously told Marie Claire back in 2017 that her client is all about walking on the treadmill at a high incline. "She doesn't like to run,” Yates said. “Sometimes she'll get on the spin bike for 15 minutes, but she prefers to walk on a high incline.”

Vergara is all about consistency, too, logging up to seven days a week of working out. "Sofía wants to build muscle and have that look—she likes curves," Yates said. "She'll spin to get cardio in, but walking is effective for her."

She's also worked with trainer Julio Cruz, who she relies on to stay super-fit, E! reports. He recommends cycling through exercises like reverse lunges, hip bridges, and toes-out squats to keep your glutes strong.

Vergara is big into Pilates-style workouts, too, doing the high-intensity, low-impact Lagree Method that Yates told People is like “bodybuilding morphed into Pilates.” She also uses something called a Megaformer machine to get results.

“We do a lot of squats and deadlifts and lunges, and we do a lot of things off the machine as well. Recently we’ve been combining some of the heavier weights for the lower body because she’s trying to put a little more mass on, so we’ve been doing a lot of work with kettle bells. She’s really strong.”

When it comes to fueling her body, Vergara picks healthy ingredients and tries to focus on the old mantra, "everything in moderation." And apparently, she has a huge sweet tooth.

“I do have a lot of fruits and vegetables, and we cook fresh meats,” Sofía told SELF of mealtimes with her husband, Joe Manganiello. “But I also have ice cream and dessert and we do that during the weekend.” During the weekdays, she shies away from the more indulgent treats.
